REFLECTION

This module taught me the vitality of site. The site is relatively important, especially in landscape architecture, as it deals with outdoor spaces in the public realm, accommodating human activities in response to the site conditions. We were given a specific topic during site analysis, which is urban ecology and the climatic studies. Through the practice, the realization and comparison between these topics in a natural environment and in an urban setting is significantly different, and was able to grasps how the ecological aspect and climate conditions play out in cities. It made me realize how landscape architecture has immense potential in improving the livelihood in public realms, as well as living environment that serves the betterment for human congregation and reconnect human and it's cities.
